A pump is a multipurpose fluid handling device which can be used to move fluids perform flow control prevent back flow and load unload trains.
Water pumpjack factorio.
After being pumped out and distributed via pipes water can be used to generate electricity by converting it to steam via boilers or heat exchangers.
Since steam water is set to have a maximum temperature of 1000 c and minimum of 15 c the most work that can be done on one unit is 197 kj.
Ground water is light blue and pretty obvious once it s enabled.
Biomass is used for military research and to make items like fertilizer or first aid kits.
This is creep which is generated under biter nests and can be harvested to produce biomass.
It must be placed on a shoreline of a body of water on the map and connected to a pipe or other object that accepts liquids it produces 1200 units of water per second.
This is a oil like resource used to create some mid game items such as lithium.
It s also far more common than crude typically.
The pumpjack will then output an amount of crude oil per cycle equal to 10 multiplied by the field s yield e g.

Water is a liquid which can be infinitely extracted from water tiles using an offshore pump.
It does not require electricity or fuel to operate.
The specific heat of water is 200j 1 c x unit code.
54 crude oil for 538 yield per second.
Ground water tiles do show up just like crude oil but it may be disabled in the config file.
Offshore pumps are frequently used to provide water for steam engines though several crafting recipes also require water.
Boilers only output steam of 165 c temperature and heat exchangers only output 500 c hot steam never hotter never colder.
When connected to pipes on both ends of the pump and powered the pump will transfer fluid from the source side to the output side if it will fit.
Factorio 2016 how to logistics tutorial robots provider storage and requester chest 60fps 1080p duration.
Without speed modules one pumpjack cycle takes one second to complete.
In practice this is barely utilized in a great variety.
The offshore pump produces water from a lake or ocean.
The answer is somewhere around a lot a pump can move up to 12000 fluid per tick a pumpjack will deliver a varying amount depending on the yield of the oil source but typically it will only be a few oil per second.
Each oil field can be covered by only one pumpjack at a fixed spot.
1 offshore pump can supply enough water for 20 boilers actually.
And now we introduce a completely brand new feature.
